What did you do to your truck today?

Couple years back I bought a Rand Mcnally wifi backup camera for putting on the back of my trailer. Never did because the range sucked with the RM tablet. Now that I have the F350 with a fifth wheel I found I can't see the hitch and thought, hey that camera should work, and it did! I have it mounted just below the third brake light with the cable fished up from the bottom of the brake light housing, ran a wire to the Upfitter switch, found a use for one so far, and mounted the wifi transmitter up above the headliner. Fire up the tablet and I can now see the hitch.
But WAIT there's MORE! In reading the booklet there is an App for the phones, so downloaded it, got the camera connected via WiFi and then got the no internet error and it reverted to setup. GRRR, however there is another app called RoadVue, and guess what, it works with the camera! WOOT! I did a range test, parked the truck in front of the trailer and went around back of the trailer and still got great signal, so looking to find a second one, and save me a few hundred $$ for a backup camera for the trailer that can be on anytime the parking lights are on.

Finally got my Sync 3 updated from version 2.3 to Version 3. Took a couple of days worth of tinkering but its all up to date now.

Finally decided to stop dragging my feet and ordered the Borla ProXS SI/DO muffler to replace the super 50 in my cat back. The Flowmaster still has a touch of annoying drone even with the factory resonator in place so I want to try out the Borla.

Where did you guys get the color matched door handle covers or vinyl to do that? I need to start getting rid of my chrome!

I went looking for one that didn't have the raptor recessed on the right side. Many do....
You have to paint it, unless you like gray.
